Seahawks 41
Skins 17

Because teams that travel across country to play generally don't fare well.

Also, you are the last person I expected to give up so soon.

I feel like that is more of an issue for the afternoon games then the evening games.

If you saw the stuff I posted in the other thread, they noted the times of the games didn't matter.

I'm not giving up entirely on the season. If we can get some guys healthy and get things on track who knows, maybe .500?

But for this game I'm not holding out much hope. I'll be surprised if it's not a double digit smack down.

ArtMonkDrillz · 10-01-2014, 03:48 PM

I'm almost hoping that the Nationals' game 3 is on at the same time as MNF so that I have a good reason not to watch the Skins. It's a sad state of affairs...

The worst part about the game is the Redskins are going to play great giving me hope and optimism then kick me in the balls with a shanked punt.

No Way (and by that, I mean Tress Way). He's our MVP so far. Blocked FG more like.

Seahawks 33
Redskins 20 but one score in garbage time. It won't be close.

SCRedskinsFan · 10-01-2014, 04:31 PM

OK, I'll agree that our chances to beat the Seahawks are slim to none. No Koolaid here either.

But --

This doesn't feel any darker than a 3-6 Redskins team going into the bye week in 2012. I guess my point is that that you're not out of it until you are, that really weird stuff happens in the NFL on a weekly basis, and that's why we're still Redskins fans after all these awful years.

Just don't try to think about any of this rationally. We were never winning the Super Bowl this year. So if we get to figure out that we gained a good coach this year (the jury is still out), and have a decent front office with a real plan (and we don't know yet), we could be miles ahead of the Shanahan disaster. Hope springs eternal, I suppose...

I think we matchup well against Seattle. If we can get a few scores early I think we could win but if its a bozing match. I think Seattle is the tougher team and will win

I think you guys will do better than you think . Skins 27 - Seahawks 24

Giantone, you're a class act, even though this has the feel of the girl who broke your heart saying "You're a great guy, and my friend really likes you." Not that this ever happened to me.
